The opposition won and Chavismo lost, but for both the elections to the governor of Barinas, held this Sunday in Venezuela, constitute an important wake-up call.

The elections were carried out by order of the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ) that had annulled the results of the votes of last November 21 in which the then opposition candidate, Freddy Superlano, had surpassed by less than one percentage point the official candidate to re-election, Argenis Chávez, brother of the late President Hugo Chávez.

The TSJ's decision, which was based on a disqualification ordered by the Office of the Comptroller General of the Republic against Superlano, was interpreted by the opposition as arbitrary and as an attempt by Chavismo to cling to power in Barinas.

This view was supported by the fact that the disqualification against Superlano had not been communicated to the National Electoral Council (CNE) prior to the elections and was reinforced by the unexpected disqualifications that prevented his wife, Aurora Silva, from running for Superlano ; and the former deputy to the National Assembly Julio César Reyes.

This is how the candidate of the opposition Democratic Unity Table (MUD) ended up being Sergio Garrido, an opposition legislator elected to the Legislative Council of Barinas, who ended up imposing himself on the Chavista candidate, Jorge Arreaza, a former Hugo Chávez-in-law who has held office since 2011. senior positions including Executive Vice President and Minister of Foreign Affairs.

1. The promising electoral route (for the opposition)

Since the failed recall referendum in 2004, there have been sectors of the opposition who have distrusted the electoral route.

These reluctance were strengthened in recent years by the judicial blockade to which the National Assembly with an opposition majority, elected in 2015, was subjected by the Supreme Court.

Also due to the impediments to submitting President Nicolás Maduro to a recall in 2016; for the complaints from the Smartmatic company about the "inflated" results announced by Chavismo in the 2017 National Constituent Assembly election; as well as by numerous gestures - such as the advance to May 2018 of the presidential elections of December of that year - read from the opposition as arbitrary acts carried out to favor the Executive.
